The Myddleton Arms, Canonbury Road
This pub on Canonbury Road takes its name from Sir Hugh Myddelton (note the different spelling), who was the force behind the creation of the New River in the 17th century to supply London with water from Hertfordshire; the river passed close to this point.

New River Walk, Canonbury
The New River was completed between 1609 and its official opening on 29th September 1613. It was designed to bring clean water to London at a time when the heavily-polluted River Thames was the main source of drinking water. It ran from near Ware in Hertfordshire to New River Head near the Angel, Islington but now finishes at Stoke Newington.
The New River remains an essential part of London’s water supply. The part to the south of Stoke Newington, where it survives as here at the New River Walk in Canonbury, is more like a linear pond and does not have flowing water. The New River Walk is an attractive path alongside the water at all seasons of the year. Here, Canonbury Grove is to the right.

The New River Walk Canonbury
The New River was built in the early 17th Century as a canal to convey drinking water from a spring in Hertfordshire to a reservoir in Myddleton Square, behind Sadler's Wells. These public gardens were created by Islington Council in 1953-4 following the route of the aqueduct.
